A cookie banner is the notice that informs visitors about the cookies you use and, where required, lets them accept or decline non-essential cookies. For an Android App, getting it right matters: Google Play requires a privacy policy link in the Play Console and a completed Data safety section that matches what your app actually collects. This free cookie banner generator asks a few questions about your Android App and assembles a tailored document you can copy or download in seconds.
Why your Android App needs a cookie banner
Under the EU ePrivacy rules and the GDPR, you generally need consent before setting non-essential cookies, and a clear notice explaining them.

What an Android App cookie banner should cover
A good cookie banner for an Android App is specific to how your product works. At a minimum, address:
- Data collected and shared, mirrored in the Play Data safety form
- Permissions your app requests and why
- Advertising IDs and any third-party advertising SDKs
- A plain-language description of the cookies you set
- The purpose of each cookie category
- How visitors can control or withdraw consent
- A link to your full privacy policy
How this generator works
PolicySmith builds your cookie banner entirely in your browser — nothing you type is sent to a server. Answer the questions above about analytics, payments, AI features, and the regions your users live in, and the document updates to match. Export it as HTML or Markdown, paste it into your Android App, and link to it from your store listing or footer.
Frequently asked questions
How does the Play Store Data safety section relate to my privacy policy?
Google compares your Data safety declarations against your privacy policy. They must be consistent, so write the policy first and use it as the source of truth when filling out the form.
When is a cookie banner legally required?
If you serve EU or UK visitors and set any non-essential cookies — analytics, advertising, or embedded media — you generally need a consent banner before those cookies load.
Do I need a banner for strictly necessary cookies?
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, but you should still disclose them. A short notice plus your privacy policy covers this.
